Analysis of phase distribution in fully developed laminar bubbly two-phase flow
TL;DR: In this article, a two-fluid model of multidimensional laminar bubbly two-phase flow is developed and used to analyze vertical pipe flows and a Galerkin finite element method is utilized to perform the numerical evaluations.

Richard T. Lahey,F. J. Moody +1 more
TL;DR: The Thermal-Hydraulics of a Boiling Water Nuclear Reactor by F. Moody and A.Byulera as mentioned in this paper is a seminal work in the field of nuclear engineering.
Journal ArticleDOI
3-D turbulence structure and phase distribution measurements in bubbly two-phase flows
TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured important flow quantities such as local void fraction, liquid velocity and the Reynolds stresses using both single-sensor and three-Sensor hot-film anemometer probes, and found that the observed wall peaking and coring phenomena in up and down flows could be predicted by considering the turbulence structure of the continuous phase and lateral lift force acting on the dispersed phase.
Journal ArticleDOI
The virtual mass and lift force on a sphere in rotating and straining inviscid flow
Donald A. Drew,Richard T. Lahey +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors calculate the force s-exercant sur a sphere unique en accelation par rapport a un fluide non visqueux soumis a une deformation pure and une rotation loin de the sphere.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for Nuclear Emissions During Acoustic Cavitation
Rusi P. Taleyarkhan,C. D. West,Jung Sang Cho,Richard T. Lahey,Robert I. Nigmatulin,Robert C. Block +5 more
TL;DR: Hydrodynamic shock code simulations supported the observed data and indicated highly compressed, hot (106 to 107 kelvin) bubble implosion conditions, as required for nuclear fusion reactions.
